Winter Gardening: 🧅Winter Sowing early root crops🧅 zone 7/8

Starting seed in January for root crops buy the almanac. In this episode we winter sow seed in a cold frame, in seed starting trays, in modular trays, and tend to the previously sown seedlings. We also share some organic amendments we use to organically grow vegetables. This episode also includes a transplant of two jiho Asian persimmon trees. Even early potatoes are planted. Root crops include turnips, beet, onion, and potatoes planted or seed sown.

We are using the almanac planting guide for timing showings by moon phases. So far this has resulted in the best seedlings ever started to date.

Starting seed this time of year is challenging. Using methods to keep seedlings warm, moist, and happy are skills learned from experienced gardeners and following their experience and garden tips help provide success in this very rewarding hobby.
